One thing I love about the broader dance music scene is that you could literally make a 24 hour playlist with music appropriate for every part of the day. Whether you want to rage, dance, relax, jump, explore your mind, shuffle, sing along, or whatever, there is a song for you. Today, Bangers of the Week is going "anti-banger" checking out the deeper, slower, and…

Forget CDJs, try spinning a festival set on these dual phonographs. While most musicians are trying to stay on the cutting edge and produce the freshest sounds, I have always been a huge proponent of diggigng through the archives and reconnecting with the past. It's weird for me to think that the early 2000's now counts as the past, almost a decade ago. Dust off these old classics…

While many of my fellow music enthusiasts have descended upon Georgia for the second go of TomorrowWorld, I'm just sitting here like, "I wonder if I can find any good music to share?" Hopefully you all agree, but I think I may have succeeded. As usual, my music selection is all over the place. Enjoy!…

After a long and stressful week of work, class, or just life, we are faced with two choices: take it easy, kick back and relax, OR go hard, because it's the weekend! While I'm definitely a proponent of both, this weekend I'm feeling the latter. Maybe it's some pent up rage or something, but today's song selections will remind you why it's called Bangers of the Week.…

I've been so busy enjoying summer funtivities, that I completely let the entire month of August slip through my fingers like grains of sand from the beaches of Ibiza. And here we are, now already a week into September, with the late summer sunsets almost completely in the rearview mirror. While we still have TomorrowWorld in Georgia to look forward to, the…

It feels like I just did a Summer Post, and yet here we are, 6 weeks later, and fast approaching the start of August. I've recently developed a much stronger appreciation for all the great things about summer. The beach, cookouts, rooftop bars, and most…

While I may still be a little bitter about the defeat of the US team at the hand's of the Belgians in the World Cup, it's time to put those differences aside. For starting this Friday begins the 10th installment of one of the greatest music festivals on the planet, Tomorrowland, hosted in aptly named Boom, Belgium. In honor of kicking off the first of two weekend's in…

Every post, I start Bangers of the Week with either some introduction of a overarching theme that ties all the song selections together, or some joke about there isn't one. This week, all I'm saying is: Snoop Dogg Drum & Bass Remix.…

It is once again everybody's favorite time of the week, and if you disagree, please shut up and humor me. Yes, I'm talking about Bangers of the Week, where I bring you some of my favorite songs from across the dance world to get your weekend started with a bang! Now, let's go!…

Apparently I picked a horrible time to take a well needed ten days of vacation. In a span of slightly over a week while I was out, Dash Berlin dropped a bunch of info on their new album, now officially titled We Are, and then shortly after rocked an amazing closing set at EDC Las Vegas, which I've already listened to a handful of times. This is Dash Berlin World, so…

In addition to my great love of dance music, I'm a huge fan of sports. I would watch pretty much any sporting competition out there (within reason. I'm looking at you...) But perhaps one of my favorite events happens once every four years, and may get the entire globe even more excited then the summer and winter olympics combined. Yesterday marked the opening kick…

The sun is setting later. The nights are heating up. Pools have officially opened. Festival season is upon us. This can all mean only one thing: Summer is here! Technically we still have a few weeks until the official start, but eff that. It's basically go time. Light up the grills, pull out the tiki torches, and turn up these summer inspired jams to get your party…

I was joking on Twitter the other day that I've been spending way to much time working on "Banker of the Day" instead of "Banger of the Day", but so it goes sometimes. Nevertheless, Bangers of the Week is back, and just in time for the weekend! I'm not sure about all of you, but I haven't been looking forward to a weekend this much and a while. So no matter what your…

This, quite honestly, may have been the most challenging Bangers of the Week to write for me yet. 25 posts, 75 bangers, a few of the most bizzarre themes for posts maybe ever, and one fantastic photoshop job, and the staff…

Prepare your ears boys and girls, because it's time for everyone's favorite part of the week! Ok, well maybe it's just my favorite part of the week. I mean, you are probably about as excited as the girl on the right above. Either way, I yet again have some great music that I'm really excited to share! So sit back, turn your speakers loud, and tune…

Welcome back, everyone, to the 22nd chapter of the Bangers of the Week saga here at Dash Berlin World. I don't really have any clever intro or cheeky segues lined up for this one, so let's just dive straight into the music!

After taking a week off to recover from my long weekend in Miami for the 16th Ultra Music Festival, I'm back with some sweet aural enjoyment for the middle of your week. As I'm sure anyone who was there could tell you, Miami was a blast, and I wanted no parts of leaving that paradise to get back into the grind here in DC. From Gaia to Deadmau5, Don Diablo to Above & Beyond, and…

What perfect timing to drop the 20th ever Bangers of the Week: right in the middle of one of the largest celebrations of dance music, culminating this weekend in the fabled Ultra Music Festival in Miami, Florida. The Winter Music Conference is a 30+ year old gathering of musicians, industry vets, and fans, filled with educational sessions and some of the first…
